GAS-FLUID.

SPECIFICATIQN forming part of Letters Patent No. 313,795, dated March 10, 1885,

(No specimens) 1'0 ctZZ whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, AUGUST F. ZIMMER- LING, of Milwaukee, in the county of Milwaukee and State of Wisconsin, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Gas'Fluids; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description thereof.

My invention consists in a certain gasfluid, COIJ'IPOS d as follows: of fusel-oi carbonoil, consisting of petroleum distillate at a gravity of about 74 Baum, and wood-naphtha. The i'usel-oil and Wood-naphtha are first purified, either separately or together, and mixed in the proportions of one-third carbon-oil and two-thirds fusel-oil, or vice versa, according to the character of the flame desired, the carbon-oil being in excess when a brilliant flame is desired,and the fusel-oil when a heat ing-fiame is desired; and to this combination a-small quantity of wood-naphtha is added to reduce the fire-test-say a volume of naphtha equal to about one twenty-fourth of the volume of fusel-oil and carbon-oil combined. These three ingredients combined constitute my composition; but to this composition may be added camphor without departing from the spirit of my invention, or any drug or drugs may be added to give it a pleasant odor.

What I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is

A gas-fluid compound of fusell-oil, carbon oil, consisting of petroleum distillate at a gravity of about 74 Baum, and wood-naphtha, substantially as described.

In testimony that I claim the foregoing I have hereunto set my hand, at Milwaukee, in the county of Milwaukee and State of W'iscousin, in the presence of two witnesses.

AUGUST F. ZIMMERLING.

STANLEY S. STOUT, H. G. UNDERWOOD.
